This week Luke, Shaun and Ewan met to chip in on a collective rant inspired by the announcement of the European Super League and the state of modern football.  What happened to jumpers for goal posts and oranges at half-time? Well, not quite. But what has led to large parts of this sport becoming so fat-bellied, insatiable, disfigured and despicable? What role do they, the suits punting product, play in this? And what role do we, the punters, play? 

Sleep is something we all need, or do we? This week Luke, Ewan, Jamie and Shaun talk all things sleep. We discuss our own personal experiences with sleep, from bedtime rituals to unusual dreams before comparing different species sleep patterns.

Repent! This week on the patter pod we cast our leery eyes over the Seven Deadly Sins and decide gluttony is best. Luke, Ewan, Jamie and Shaun discuss the seven deadly sins that are believed to be the seven vices that spur other sins and further immoral behaviours. We cover each sin individually while thinking about how these ancient guidelines look in our modern day world and how some sins have developed over time.

What do we all have in common? Well for most of us it’s the Human Body. Coming in all shapes and sizes but internally we are mostly the same, some of us have stronger constitutions than others mind you. Luke, Shaun, Ewan and Jamie vouch for their favourite organs and discuss all the incredible wonders within us.

On this podcast, Luke, Shaun, Jamie and Ewan discuss serial killers. The fascination with true crime and serial killers seems to be growing endlessly and have a hold on a wider audience than ever. Like in the instance of poor Paul Krendler, Hannibal Lecter has direct access to our cortex and has set about consuming it in the most indelicate way. What does it mean that we are drawn to programmes about the lives of people whom (from most of us) we hope never to meet the likes of?

All that cold blackness 

-This time on the podcast, Shaun, Luke and Ewan discuss the likelihood of alien life and what it could mean for us. 

In this episode of the Patter Podcast Jamie, Luke, Ewan and Shaun dissect ‘fear’ – what our phobias are rooted in, how they manifest and how they’ve evolved to reflect our changing times. We discuss why certain characters and tropes are revisited in the horror genre whilst asking if fear is innate or learned.

British Royalty and American chat show Royalty came together in a bizarre televised collaboration where Oprah let Harry and Meghan tell their side of why they had to flee Britain to the sunshine of California -which got Twitter trending #AbolishTheMonarchy. Luke, Jamie and Shaun discuss the issues raised in the interview, the current feeling towards the Royal Family and whether or not the Monarchy should continue. Let’s be honest, the Republic of Scotland does have a nice ring to it.

Jamie, Luke, Shaun and Ewan discuss artificial intelligence. We got together to speak about our understanding of how AI operates and what our cultural and practical experiences tell us about the future of AI.  We discuss what artificial intelligence can do, what it cannot do, and just how sure we are of these limitations.
